This month, Ragini and Chef Keith dive straight into a favourite holiday spice: nutmeg. Encased in its equally gorgeous counterpart, mace, the nutmeg seed is both potent and beautiful. A little goes a long way, and in fact, too much nutmeg may make you mildly hallucinogenic. But what is Christmas without nutmeg? How did that come to be? As always, the history is part fascinating, part surprising, and in this case, part gruesome. Grab a mug of your favourite holiday beverage, curl up and join us to talk about all things nutmeg. Happy Holidays!
